History

The first game played between the two schools took place on January 27, 1956, in Syracuse, New York. Syracuse won 102–82.

The rivalry peaked while both teams were members of the Big East Conference from 1979 to 2013. The rivalry featured two Hall of Fame coaches, Jim Boeheim and Jim Calhoun.

2009 Big East Tournament

One of the highlights was the historic Big East Tournament quarterfinal game in 2009. The game took place at Madison Square Garden in New York City where Syracuse won 127-117 in a game that went to six overtimes, ending at 1:22 AM.

Post Big East

In November 2015, after the teams met in the Bahamas, both Kevin Ollie and Jim Boeheim expressed interest in renewing the rivalry. Boeheim said, "It was like an NCAA game early in the year, It's a tremendous atmosphere. A tremendous game. It really was. I think there's a reasonable likelihood that we will play Connecticut again someday soon." Ollie said, "It's something that we're definitely looking at, It would be a great thing. It's a great rivalry."

UConn and Syracuse met at the Jimmy V Classic on December 5, 2017 with Syracuse winning 72–63. A year later the teams would meet in the Empire Classic, with UConn winning 83–76. Currently there are no games scheduled between the two schools.

2004

In 2004 UConn joined the Big East conference as a football member starting an annual meeting with Syracuse. In the schools first meeting at the Carrier Dome in 2004, UConn quarterback Dan Orlovsky completed a school- and Big East-record 39 passes for a school-record 445 yards, in a 42–30 loss.

Syracuse would later vacate wins from 2004, and 2006 for academic misconduct. The 2012 matchup was the schools final meeting as Big East conference members, with Syracuse accepting an invite to the Atlantic Coast Conference and UConn joining the American Athletic Conference. The schools met again in 2016, and 2018 as non conference opponents. Recently the schools announced a four game series starting in 2022. In January 2023 it was announced that Syracuse has added UConn to its non conference schedule with a location to be determined at a later date.

Coaching connection

Former UConn head coach Randy Edsall and former offensive coordinator Frank Giufre both played football at Syracuse. Paul Pasqualoni served as head coach at Syracuse from 1991–2004 compiling a 104–59–1 record with the Orange. Pasqualoni became the head coach at UConn in 2011, only lasting two seasons with the huskies with a record of 10–18. While at UConn Pasqualoni hired his former offensive coordinator at Syracuse George DeLeone to work in the same role from 2011–2012.
